Picture this...

Right now, I am going through a phase where I want what I write to be accompanied by a picture...no reasons whatsoever...am the writer and pictures have caught my fancy now...whim and fancy I must say...
All the pictures used are courtesy Google Image searches...
Thank you for making my posts picturesque!

...life in symphony!

Oh!! The rains...
Like a travel unknown,
Like a dream constructed,
Like a carnival just begun,
Like a celebration midway,
Like a love story being written,
Like a melody being composed,
Like a painting canvassed,
Like a dance performed,
Like a mystery unraveled,
Like a memory engraved,
Like a 'dessert'ed bliss,
Like a happiness experienced,
Like a life in symphony!

Psychedelic trance...let the colors fade for some time...

In road...


Tranquil moments
Fading autumn
Solitary existence!

Mirage


The fairy will come...
to tell you a little tale...
The dream will last...
to show you the gale...
The memories will stay...
to let life inhale.

The fairy did come...
I closed my eyes...
The dream did last...
I saw myriad motions...
The memories did stay...
I found new hope.

Random travelogues into the crevices of mind...Mirage

Shhhhhh....


It is now Pink!

दो बातें...

गहरा बादल
मचलती हवा
अनोखा एहसास
चाह तुम्हारी।

बदलता आलम
टिमटिमाती तारे
सूनी राहें
प्यासा इंतज़ार।

बिखरे जुल्फे
झुकी पलके
कमसिन मुस्कराहट
लचकता बदन।

इन ख्वाहिशों की डोर हाथों में तुम्हारे,
इन पलों की सच्चाई बाँहों में तुम्हारे।

बस कहनी थी यह दो बातें...

...the curry of life!

I love the tinkle of the spoon and fork,
I love the ladle doing its ballet in the 'kadai'
I love the 'tadka' and its misty world,
I love the wait for the dal to boil,
I love the chopping of vegetables,
I love deciding the garnishing,
I love the splitting mustard and the bursting cumin,
I love the curry leaves and the coriander fragrant,
I love the 'chutni pudi' and the peanut butter,
I love the omelette and the half made toast,
I love the popcorn and the lemon chai,
I love to plan the course in advance,
I love to do those vegetable bargainings,
I love to buy those tinie-minie kitchen things,
I love this little world called the 'kitchen',
I love these house-wifey moments:)
I love to create the curry of life...

Lost self

Wandering thoughts
Tangled faith
Disillusioned beliefs
Confused ideology
Suffocating conversations
Oxymoron-ic trust
Disheveled dreams
Blinkered reality
Blinded actions
Skewed majority
Gullible opinions
Grandeur images
False egos
Dispensable moments...

Tiramisu!

The tiramisu melted...
Warm moments found palette...
Inspiration beholds!

Found...

Found new wings...
Found my own trail...
Found the dancing toes...
Found the twinkling eyes...
Found the lasting thoughts...
Found the happy smiles...
Found the forever memories...
Found new skies...
Found my own self!
